✨ The artist ✨
🖤 Digital artist based in Romania. SAHM during the day, freelance illustrator at night. Big nerd and gamer in between. Surviving on coffee, sugar and 6 hours of interrupted sleep.
I'm one of those people who constantly get the urge to "make something". It doesn't matter how artistic it is, it could be painting, drawing, texturing, cringey comics (yes, some of those are still online if you know where to look), photography, sewing or all the DIY stuff around the house. But I need to make it with my own hands and see how the project is coming to fruition.
And I guess digital art is what caught on to me the most, so here we are. 🤷♀️
A lot of my art used to be inspired by music...but I've been listening pretty much to the same bands since I was 14, so it's becoming increasingly difficult to still be inspired by it. And that's part of the reason I love doing commissions: people come up with such lovely and intricate characters and I can always find inspiration in them and in the fantasy setting they inhabit.
✨ The CRAFT ✨
🖤 95% of my work is done in Photoshop. Occasionally, while on the go, I'm using Procreate. Would love to dabble more with other mediums, but I'm just not at that point in my life yet.
